xanderdeg Dreone is a master of creating lush, cleansing textures that allow us to be swept away by the tides of the ocean that lives inside all of us. Favorite track: Driftdown Procedure.

mysticwolf75 Hearing the backstory of this really hit home for me, as I went through this myself back in 1993 - 1994, a year of depression and contemplating taking my own life. Thankfully I discovered Eastern philosophy and New Thought, which were extremely helpful and saved my life. Anyway, I'm so sorry for your loss. But this music is absolutely breathtaking.

TIPI-M First read about this release on Hilyard’s Instagram and was captured by the backstory. I too, as many others , have friends who decided to end it before their time was due. What a beautiful way this release is to immortalise close friends. The music is captivating, deep and absolutely stunning! Long passages of repeating pulses blended with small glimmers of hope and beauty, would be right at home within any epic and grand sci-fi movie. Christopher Nolan should give Bryan Hilyard a call… Favorite track: Wake.

about

Driftdown Procedure follows the Dreone craft/AI humanoid system down through a distant planets atmosphere after calamity and engine failure. This is the beginning of Dreones long journey towards sentience...

Dreone is a sort of metaphor/vessel for my late friends Jacob and John, my childhood best friends/brothers who both made the choice to end their lives prematurely and left this earth to journey into the stars. We were inseparable. For me, their spirit now lives on within the Dreone system, exploring deep space, learning the cosmos and re-gaining sentience which will include senses humans can only dream of. Several other friends in our circle left shortly after them and more continue to leave to this day. Their memories and lived experiences too, are uploaded to the machine so I don't feel so alone...

(Jacob was a graffiti artist with the tag-name, "Dreone")

In memoriam:
Jacob Akerman
John Hopkins
and too many more to name...
